When: 25 January 2022

As researchers, we work hard for promotions and increased responsibility which validates our efforts and helps us climb the ladder of ambition. Yet with increased pressure leading to stress, anxiety and depression, we must be aware of these and other possible pitfalls while striving for success. WIRI has organized an open discussion with two international researchers. Topics examined at this invent will include:

Transitioning from undergrad to postgrad and beyond

Emotions associated with these transitions

Advice to help with transitions

Support systems

How to navigate future transitions given past experiences
